    Fetched a takeaway earlier this evening from my beloved Curry Mahal. It was absolutely stacked out with orders, waiting time was up to 90 minutes at one point. On the way home I tripped, stumbled and fell. For those who are concerned, no need to worry, I managed to keep my carrier almost vertical and only slight leakage occurred.

    I described it to a mate later as "Ah tummuld darn". Does anyone else use this expression?

    Surely "tumbled"? Glad your curry survived.

    Tumbled darn definitely....also if it happens on stairs while going up it is " tumbled up stairs".

    Both happen a lot after too many tipples:)

    I once ended up in out patients having an elbow xray after a “Fish and Chip Topple”
    All the more annoying because:
    I hadn’t had a tipple.
    I saved the chips, not my elbow.
    The chips were for everyone else, not me.

    Reminds me of the time me and Mrs Orared called for two fish (1 each) at chippy in Dodworth. As I was the driver she went in chippy and returned to car with the aforesaid 2 fish. Getting back in car she shed half her load - Bloody hell she says, I've dropped yours.
    How's that work then.

    I use tummeld darn. The other half tripped and fell whilst out eating an ice cream this summer. Head first into the curb, black eye, grazed cheek, lump on chin.

    Ice cream? Fully intact, no droppage whatsoever, lol :) Bless her little cotton socks. She definitely did tummel darn but she weren't dropping that ice cream lol :)

    I've just realised that the German slang word for "Tumble Dryer" is "Tummler", which easier to remember than "Heissluftwäschetrockner".

    It's certainly a mouthful isn't it? Stick clothes in tummler is a lot easier lol :)
